Feature-rich Looper with Extended Recording Time

The Electro-Harmonix 1440 Stereo Looper Pedal is an easy-to-use looper with impressive functionality. Featuring 20 independent onboard loops, 24 minutes of recording time with unlimited overdubs, and versatile effects, this looper has some serious power under the hood. The stereo inputs and outputs allow you to use it with other stereo effects or two separate instruments for looping performances. Meanwhile, a footswitch jack allows you to connect an external controller for easy, hands-free operation. Complete with an Undo-Redo function, Reverse and Octave speed effects, adjustable fadeout time, and MIDI Clock synchronization, there are tons of options to explore and sonic pathways to explore. Don't let the impressive functionality intimidate you, the 1440 Looper is easy to use, just like the Electro-Harmonix loopers that came before it.

24 minutes of looping time and unlimited overdubbing

The Electro-Harmonix 1440 is an incredibly powerful looping tool for live performance and studio work. When you press record, you have 24 minutes of uncompressed 24-bit conversion at a 44.1 kHz sample rate with unlimited overdubbing capacity at your disposal. You can choose between any of 20 individual loops with the handy Loop knob or an optional 3-button footswitch. Connect to an external MIDI Clock, and you can easily synchronize your loop with other external gear in your rig. With unlimited overdubbing and built-in MIDI synchronization, you can experiment with and explore new sonic frontiers.

Onboard effects and features unlock your potential

Today, looping pedals are more versatile than ever before. The 1440 features onboard effects and awesome features to unlock new sounds and possibilities. This looper has stereo I/O that gives you the option to use with other stereo pedals on your board. A helpful Undo-Redo function makes sure that your audience only hears what you want them to. With the touch of a single button, you can take your playing in completely new directions, thanks to the Reverse and Octave speed effects. Other effects and parameters at your disposal include an adjustable loop fadeout timer, 1 Shot Button.

USB connectivity and unmatched customization

If you manage to fill each of the 20 onboard storage slots, don't fret! The 1440 has a USB port that lets you easily save, store, and transfer loop audio from your pedal to your computer. Simply connect to your computer and transfer your favorite loops for safe storage. Then load your looper with the loops you'll need for your next performance. But that's not all, the 1440 Stereo Looper has two programmable looping orders for any workflow. Pick between Record/Play/Dub or Record/Dub/Play and get playing! The optional external footswitch output gives you control over the onboard effects switching. The 1440 Stereo Looper offers an extra level of customization that players at Sweetwater love.

Great Looper

I bought this looper for the tempo control. Great to record a loop and change the tempo and the pitch of the recording. I do atmospheric experimental guitar tracks, and this works great. I use it along with my Ditto looper to create some crazy sounding tracks.

Perfect for my purposes

When I saw this new looper from EHX, I spotted the one feature I've always wanted but didn't seem to exist, the ability to fade out the loop automatically over a specified time. My live synth rig consists of many (10) small synthesizers running through two submixers, each with its own looping delay(limited to 8 secs). So one group can start fading out (with no hand on the fader!) while I start a new ensemble on another mixer. Now I'll be able to do this with very long loops.

Everything else about this device is simple and straightforward. 'One-shot' is a cool feature, 'reverse' is always fun, and 'octave', well... It's the only effect I really don't care about. (Maybe someday a pitch shift without time change will happen.) The price lands within a reasonable range. And, a previous dealbreaker on other products, it's in perfect stereo!
Rated 5/5

Great looper pedal (mostly)

I use this pedal to store bass synth lines synced with a Beat Buddy drum machine pedal. In this regard it works flawlessly! On the downside apparently I discovered a design flaw. EHX makes a loop manager app so that you can export all of your loops. This way you can later re-export your loops to create different loop order in your pedal. The problem is when you do this the Tempo becomes corrupt and the looper no longer plays the correct pitch of the pre recorded loops. I contacted EHX about the issue and sent them a video of the problem. The good news is, they are showing me that an update to fix the problem will be available in firmware, but might take several months. The fact that I was able to talk one on one with EHX about the problem speak volumes about their customer service and company as a whole!

So Far So Good

Haven't actually used a guitar with this yet, but I was able to easily load some files from my computer. I primarily play/record experimental/industrial/noise music so the reverse and octave features are great for this type of material.

Great, Great Looper

Fist off let me give a shout-out to Sweetwater's Jimmy Hart. As always, he gives me recommendations that are spot on.

After having a JamMan Solo for some time I was looking for a looper that would sync with my BeatBuddy drum pedal. I must say that irrespective of that capability (i.e MIDI sync) the 1440 is a real dream to work with. I find double-taps tricky, so it's a real plus that the 1440 has a separate Stop button. In my hands (foot actually) the 1440 is amazingly fun to use, and while I haven't delved into the Octave, Reverse or 1-Shot, I would say the Fade functionality is pretty cool, as it makes transitioning to taking over a rhythm riff from the looper very smooth. This is a looper with a lot of bang for the buck and I can't be more pleased.

As far as working with the BeatBuddy, first and foremost take notice of three things: 1) the BeatBuddy DOES require it's own special MIDI cable; 2) the "Out" on that cable is a Female connection and the "In" on the 1440 is a Female connection, so you've need yet another cable (Male at both ends) or a Male-Male gender mender; and 3) do read the 1440 manual on MIDI syncing. Once you do all that the combination of the two pedals gives you incredible possibilities. Huge fun, and the drum and loop are in awesome sync.
